Toby Mac and KJ-52 collaborate for 'Hip Hope Hits 2009' compilation
THE LEADING Christian hip-hop compilation series, 'Hip Hope Hits', will release its fifth instalment on Gotee Records in February. 'Hip Hope Hits 2009' will take on a new twist under the direction of production manager Mike "DJ Maj" Allen for Fistpic Productions. He commented, "When asked to coordinate this project I considered music's rapidly changing pace and face. I also took into account that digital mediums like iTunes now allow the consumer to make their own compilations. So it made sense to cook up an album with a little more original material from both established acts like Toby Mac, KJ-52, Pigeon John, Canton Jones, Speech Of Arrested Development, Flynn Adam, Pettidee, as well as newcomers Braille, Shonlock of Diverse City, B Reith and Stefan The Scientist." Other acts on the album are Othello, Freddie Bruno, DJ Morph, Pro, Propaganda and DJ Promote. When asked about his favourite tracks on the record Maj stated, "I'm really excited about the Toby/KJ collaboration. It's something I've been waiting to see happen for a while. Speech and Canton Jones are also great additions to the lineup. I believe everyone will be pleased."
